Monday, August 29th

Today was a fantastic day in 4th grade!  We played on the iPods - to practice our math facts.  And we learned about metamorphosis when we talked about insects in science.  Metamorphosis means changing shape.  Insects start as eggs, then larva, then pupa and finally - adult.  (Note from Mrs. G - ask your kiddo to show you the hand motions that go with the life stages!) 
We got to choose the insects that we are each going to study in science - and we'll find out the final results tomorrow.  :)
In math today, we made shape art.  We'll have pictures up tomorrow of our final designs.
And most importantly, today we had Readers Friends for the first time. It was so fun.  We helped them check out.
We took the MAZE comprehension test in reading - it's a great test because it is only 3 minutes long!
Today we also wrote our spelling words in ABC order.
We can't wait to find out which insects we get to start studying tomorrow!
